anti-theft protection suggestion using the magnetic mount connection

[DGlvwma]

Suggesting anti-theft configuration -

when mounted magnetically the 2nd generation camera is configured to detect and maintain the magnetic connection to the mounting bracket - a configuration element specifies the detection of the magnetic mounting when installed - the anti-theft element of this configuration element has two(2) settings available from the main support station menu device - setting 1 - device is active - magnetically mounted and operational in normal mode - setting 2 - device is inactive - not magnetically connected  and is down for maintenance reasons (battery/placement etc)

while active - if the device detects a loss of magnetic connection ( i.e it has been removed from the mounting bracket without having first initiated maintenance mode) the following actions are taken:

on the device

the siren alarm is emitted continuous for five minutes after which the device initiates an erase instruction for all internal configuration stored locally on the device rendering it inoperable

on the managing workstation or base station

the device serial number is declared inoperable

notifications to this effect are logged and sent

thank you for considering this suggestion
